Thursday – A Little Personal – Bailey

 

“Hello, reader.”

“Hello, Bailey. Nice to see you.”

Bailey

“Can I confide in you for a minute?”

“Why sure you can.”

“The Boss is coming home tomorrow and I have some things on my chest that I need to confess.”

“You can tell me.”

Bailey and Lucy

“Lucy and I got on the bed while he was away.”

“Well, I’m sure that’s not a big deal.”

Bailey

“I went swimming right after I ate.”

“You are still here, right? No harm done.”

Bailey

“Lucy and I went gopher digging.”

“I’m sure that was okay.”

“You really think so?”

“Yes, I do.”

Bailey

“Maybe I worry too much.”

Stella

“I’m going to tell John when he gets home.

I’m out of the country but will try to get to your comments. I apologise if my response is delayed.

  1. Don’t worry Bailey… I think that you may find that your Dad may have got up to worse… Scotland has fried mars bars and yard ale drinking contests.. he may well have tossed the caber too… not a pretty sight.

  16. Have a safe trip home, John. You may want to pick up a poncho on the way home as I’m sure you’ll be covered in dog slobber as soon as you step through the front door!

  17. Bailey, I’m sure John will be so happy to see you that he won’t be bothered by any of this. In fact, you might as well sneak in one more comfy snooze – that’s what I’d do.
